Ying Jing wants to enter the entertainment industry, and the agent can only be Wen Fucheng.
Xie Weisi thinks he's gone mad.
"You leave a perfectly good company to become the agent of someone you're infatuated with?"
Hmm?
Such a straightforward admission of infatuation made the man's face seem a bit more gentle.
"You think I'm not qualified enough."
It's not about being unqualified; it's about being overqualified.
Wen Fucheng, however, was indifferent, thinking it was just a small matter.
In the past life, he had never hesitated to squander a fortune for her.
As long as she was around, even if he could only watch from afar, life would go on.
He still had a reason to live.
After she left, he tried to live well as she had wished.
The truth is, those who leave first are always a little happier, and Wen Fucheng thought about her for many more years in that world.
Unfortunately, no one loved him anymore.
The person he loved was gone.
After Ying Jing, no one loved him, Wen Fucheng, anymore.
"She can have two agents at the same time."
These words undoubtedly gave Xie Weisi hope. His eyes lit up, and he pressed his hands on the desk, looking at the person across from him.
His entire being was saying, "Look at me, look at me."
Wen Fucheng did not give him a definitive answer, suggesting he go to the major competitions to see if there were other targets, and if not, they would talk further.
After all, if he remembered correctly, in the previous life, after terminating the contract with Yuan Shi Entertainment, Weiyi became Ying Jing's agent.
And she always did a lot for her with utmost dedication.
In this matter, he needed to seek Ying Jing's opinion first.
When he got home in the evening and didn't see Ying Jing, she had left a note on the table.
Said she went home to get something.
The words "Wen Fucheng" were written especially beautifully by her.
After eating and drinking with Weiyi, Ying Jing went home and received a call from Ying Zenan.
Asked why she didn't come home at night.
Ying Jing was still looking for an opportunity to go back and get her luggage. Although she didn't live there regularly, she kept most of her frequently worn and used items at the villa.
Things were different before.
In the future, she planned to stay more often at this large flat.
Upon returning home, Ying Zenan was in the living room talking to his secretary, who greeted her when he saw her.
She opened her suitcase and began packing things inside.
After finishing work, Ying Zenan came upstairs to see her packing her suitcase.
"It's not even time for school to start yet. Where are you going with a suitcase?"
Usually, when traveling, she was not this proactive, often preferring to buy whatever she needed upon arrival instead of bringing luggage.
"Didn't you recently land a big project and are quite busy?" Ying Zenan's office even had a room, quite spacious. Plenty enough for him to live alone, and when too busy, he'd sleep at the company. "With school starting soon, I still have some assignments to finish, so meeting my friends to study is more convenient."
The more he listened, the more Ying Zenan felt something was off. Was Ying Jing possessed? She actually started making formal explanations to him.
"You really don't have to explain so much."
Ying Jing zipped her suitcase shut. The note she left for Wen Fucheng said she wasn't coming home tonight. But now she decided that chasing love shouldn't be delayed.
She decided to go home that night.
Ying Zenan stopped her at the door.
"You're not even staying for dinner."
"I ate outside with Weiyi, not hungry now. Goodbye, brother!"
Ying Zenan didn't intend to let her leave so easily.
"In that case, take Zhao Qingran with you. Your place is spacious, with extra rooms, so make space for her."
That won't work.
How could it.
That was her and Wen Fucheng's private world.
"Brother, it won't make a difference for one or two days. If you make her leave with me now, it'll make her feel unwelcome. Qingran would surely feel like you're rejecting her. Anyway, you're not home during the day, busy at night, you might not come back. She'll leave once school starts."
Ying Zenan remained silent, not sure what he was thinking, but ultimately, he let her go.
As Ying Jing walked out the door, she ran into Zhao Qingran, who was returning from the library.
The two chatted for a while and Zhao Qingran walked her to the door.
"My brother is slow to warm up, if you don't like him, just stay in your room and amuse yourself."
Zhao Qingran smiled gently at her.
After seeing Ying Jing off, she went inside and Ying Zenan was just coming down from upstairs. He had changed from his earlier suit to more casual attire.
Ying Zenan picked up his keys from the coffee table, told the aunt cooking in the kitchen he was going out, and intended to leave.
Zhao Qingran heard him say a friend asked him out, so he might return very late.
She stood there, lips pursed, without saying a word, and after speaking, Ying Zenan didn't even glance at her.
When he reached the garage and got into the car, just as he started the engine, a petite figure ran in front of the car, and Ying Zenan lifted his head to look at her.
His expression indifferent.
Lowering the car window, he spoke clearly enough for her to hear.
"Move."
Zhao Qingran wore an expression hesitant to speak.
Ying Zenan rested one arm on the window. "You should know the only reason I agreed to let you stay was as a favor to my dad."
Zhao Qingran smiled at him, her smile was bitter and forced, and the next second tears began to fall.
"You're willing to talk to me now?"
"You blocked my car."
"Ying Zenan, could you not go out to play? I don't want you to leave."
"In what capacity are you saying this? As far as I remember, I never granted you any authority over me."
"I..."
"Zhao Qingran, you must understand, from the moment you schemed, we had no future. Who are your tears meant to pity now? I won't fall for you again."
Zhao Qingran's expression froze, stunned for several seconds.
As if she couldn't believe he said that.
"Ying Zenan."
He said he would never be moved by her again, but the fact was he once was.
It was she who didn't cherish it.
"This is my world, and if you can't accept who I am, why even try to come near me."
Ying Jing didn't know Ying Zenan and Zhao Qingran had a past. Nor did she know that Ying Haiyun had once beaten Ying Zenan nearly to death, later announcing publicly that he was sent abroad to manage an overseas branch office and only returned to the country after half a year when he was physically recovered.
At that time, Ying Jing was busy chasing after Lu Zishu.
She believed every word her father said, and occasionally Ying Zenan would video call her, she never suspected anything abnormal about Ying Zenan in those six months.
Ying Zenan had also rebelled and once acted impetuously for love.
Ultimately, the girl he liked personally pushed him into the abyss.
"I don't blame you for that impulsive year. Now that everything has returned to normal. There's no need for us to meet alone privately anymore. You and Uncle Zhao visiting, the Ying Family will still treat you as guests."
When Zhao Qingran was 18, she fell in love with Ying Zenan at first sight, her feelings were overwhelming, catching Ying Zenan off guard. But he kept some reason, intending to reveal his feelings after she graduated.
Due to family reasons, Zhao Qingran started school a year later than others.
Over the years, the Ying family had extended help to the Zhao family intermittently.
Ying Zenan thought life would continue like this, and after she graduated, he would confess to Zhao Qingran.
By then, if she was still willing, he had considered having a future with her.
